DEFINITION

Classification: 335/257

(under subclass 255) Subject matter including means to absorb the shock of the armature when coming to rest against an armature stop, thereby preventing vibration of the armature.

(1) Note. The shock absorber means may be a spring means or other resilient material serving as a cushion to stop the armature movement with minimum of armature vibration.
